Program January 6, 2016

Let's get started in 2016 with some brand-new music, shall we? First up is the fabulous Bosnian punk-ska-Balkan brass band Dubioza Kolektiv (pictured above), whose new album will be released on February 5, and who are planning their first-ever tour of the USA later this year.

I have a whole hour of Balkan music this week, including a January 29 release from another Bosnian band, Divanhana -- these guys are more folk and jazz than punk and brass, however. Also new this week: vintage sega music from the island nation of Mauritius, courtesy of Natty Ho, Konsole and Strut Records (due on February 4); and a superb desert blues outing by Niger's TisDass (released December 1 while everyone was working on their best-of-2015 lists).
